Just trying to imagine how a sane person will be comfortable going to bed every night knowing he/she threw acid on someone's face

Just like i try to imagine how some people go to bed, infact sleep on the bed of a Woman they threw emotional acid on...
Or a Man who claims all the inheritance of his late brother sleep...Forgetting he just threw acid on the Children's Destiny.

In as much as i don't support this,
Lets all do to others what we want them to do to us.

Yuneehk:
I just wonder what would make a sane person pour acid on another person.

Don't support this...But sometimes Insane People make Sane people loose their Sanity.

Some Human beings can be Wicked esp Ladies...

Some people have poured acids on people emotions, careers, marriages and destinies and the effect leaves them with such scars but no one sees the scar because it lies deep in their heart...
Let's do unto others what you want them to do to you.

If I tell you what someone i helped did to me, you guys will say its Nollywood and if not for the fear of God, maybe i would have done something crazy. But I've chosen to let God judge

I just remembered how they stole my car last year despite all the hiding...

Stupid wailers Stupid NLC

No to subsidy. Nigerians have been duped for long enough. NLC you are on your own
Why will u walk out on minimum wage and be advocating for subsidy that places all our resources in a few hands
We have been paying subsidy for ages yet all we have gotten is increased fuel price, scarcity and economic sabotage.
God punish all of una !

What are you saying?
Are you saying the Masses should suffer hardhardship because the Government has failed in it's responsibility to curb the excesses of a group of few Nigerians called 'Marketers'?

Are you saying the Canadian, U.K. and U.S. Government should as well cut down on welfare because the Agencies involved are corrupt?
Are you saying the U.S. Govt should stop giving free meals to elementary school children cos those responsible will selfishly keep back some for their families?
A Govt. that is out to fight corruption cannot get to the root of subsidy fraud and take necessary actions on those involved in fraud?
The Govt. can't eliminate corrupt practices among those responsible for keeping our borders?
Ok stop cooking for your Children since your maid steals meat.

When will Nigerians get smart and know that they are been deceived?

For the Ladies that lived in Hall2...

Early morning bread from 'Going going Gone!'
If you miss buying from her, sorry for you cos you gonna walk all the way down to those guys in common room.

Amikable and her utility dwellers that sell clothes on the walk way....

Early morning fight at the tap n walk way.. 'Bucket Breaking and Hair pulling Scene.'

And finally Pastor Porter walking in when girls are bathing to seize buckets...

To all the 2008/2009 set there was one legendary ARROW nicknamed maspirano.. jeez that guy ehn! Too much noise and sleek disses full him mouth.

His signature entry into hall4 was 'maspirano Is back again! '. I used to get irritated until I got wind @ d end of d session that the niqqa graduated from maths with a FIRST CLASS! An arrow leaving uniben with a first class? Legendary!

This OP NEVER EVEN TALK ABOUT
*HOT PLATE,
*ROBBERS IN OSASOGIE,
*THE TAX COLLECTORS @ EDO STREET, EKOSODIN
*THE PEOPLE WHO GOT ADMISSION TO CAR PARK NOT UNIBEN,
* THE PRAYER WARRIORS WHO GO TO SPORTS CENTER EARLY IN THE MORNING.
*THE USELESS GIRLS CAMPUS FELLOWSHIPS SEND INTO BOYS HOSTEL TO LURE BOYS TO SERVICE (in fact those babes should put it down as marketing experience on their c.v)
*THE LOVE OF BEANS (among boys)
*THE SINS OF HALL 2 CAR PARK /LOVE GUTTER
*HOW BABES CARRY BOYS TO JUNE12 AND DRAIN THE GUYS POCKET BUYING MISHAL(bread n egg)
*THE DERANGED PEOPLE WHO JOIN MAN 'O WAR AND START THINKING THEY'RE ACTUAL SOLDIERS! LMAO
*THE OLD/STAYLITES WHO GO TO AUDITORIUM TO "HUNT" WHEN A NEW SET STARTS CLEARANCE.


...lemme not mention the coded sides of uniben sef.

The emboldened got me Lol..
I remember my neighbour in Osasogie who joined Man-o-war n started feeling like a soldier.
Whenever he hears a sound at night he'll yell, 'Who's dat'. Until one faithful day when the real thieves came and designed his face with resounding slaps...
O my God! I miss Uniben.

martineverest:
Ekosodin: Devils' headquarters. Never lived in that horrible village....osasogie brethren here

Osasogie and Night robbery....
Ekosodin is better than Osasogie in terms of robbery while Osasogie is better in terms of intimidation.
In summary Osasogie is better during the Day...
Ekosodin is better at Night.

As a fresher in Hall 1 or 2, you must have the 'BUNKKY' story to tell.
Remember my bunkky telling me to return my stool after climbing to my bed.

Rossy99:
is dt d only tin i can apply,dnt tink i can get dt here

Rinse Nipple with cold water after every nursing section. It works wonders.

olapluto:
Well Oyo state has rejected you already. Ogun state is industralised and soon the grazing lands will be used to build companies. I suggest Fulanis move to the South East. Plenty grazing land there.

I'm not from the South-East but a statement like this shouldn't come from someone who has a phone and can type words...
It's good we think through before speaking.
United we stand...divided, I'm sorry Oyo and Ogun will be a grazing land.
Lets push out these heartless fellows with a united heart.

ozycy:
I got it from US for abt $20. Dunno if you can see it here in Naija.

Thanks. I'll look out for it.

anytaij:
Happy Sunday to you all. I tried cleaning my boy's ear@ 3months that was last month never knew had gone far he was the one who shaked that was when I knew had gone far. Some days later I notice pus coming out from his ear. I then took him to General Hospital Gbagada I was asked to go for ear swab and after which I was asked to buy Orelox, Zyncet with Vit c which I gave him for one week and I gave him the complete dosage I notice some pus still comes out of his ear not just that one both now. What do I do? Or have anyone experienced such? Thanks

Next time don't go into a baby's ear till the baby is a year old...
Their ear drum is very close to the external ear and can be affected....
By the way the risk involved is greater than what you want to achieve with cleaning it.

Take the baby back to the hospital.

ozycy:
Evenflo manual pump, dats what I use and I can fill that bottle that came with the pump in about 5mins.

I use Tommie Tippie currently...
I used another product for my first baby and still couldn't get much with a pump....

Please where did you buy it and how much does it go for...
Though I've done my research and found out not everyone gets much with a pump, but i might have my final try with yours.

FINA4804:
Good evening mamas, I started expressing milk yesterday because I always go out butbi always get very little quantity. What can i do to get much more

If you dont get much with your pump, don't beat urself.
Not everyone gets so much expressed milk with a pump. I EBF my first baby and she was so on point in her weight and general health and i hardly got up to 60ml with a pump.

Now I'm EBF my twins, they are gaining weight for their age and i still struggle to get 90ml...

I just feel its more of an individual thing

[quote author=brownskingirl post=44750996][/quote]Yellowish eyes and skin is a sign of Jaundice.
2 of my babies have had it.

If it is severe PLEASE take Baby immediately to the Hospital. However, If it just started you can try Home remedy

Once I noticed it, I took my babies to morning sunlight for 15-30 minutes daily and it clears off.
One of my Twin just recovered from it last week

Situation should improve BUT if it doesn't quickly take baby to the Hospital. Pray too

silkytouch:
Nairaland MODs always pushing threads that tarnish christianity to the front page every other sunday, while safe guarding their darling religion. Keep doing what you are doing.

They are actually publicizing the name, 'JESUS'.
At least no one on Nairaland will say they've never heard about JESUS.

MODs please keep up with your evangelical approach.
I Love it.

Many are Mad, few are Roaming...
This Pastor is certainly Mad and about to roam..
Please Members, your Civic responsibility is to take him to the nearest Psych....Thanks

AlphaHandMaiden:
That may work out better for you especially as you have twins.

Unfortunately creches dont do 2 for 1.

Find out what the going creche rates are for your babies and then factor in your salary, fuel/ transportion, feeding for yourself at work etc. Including a nanny as well as your usual household outgoings and see how much of your salary is left!

If you take a maximum of 3 extra babies, between 6 months and 2 yrs and work from home as a child minder you may find out that you may be better off at home.

Dont forget, the cost of a nanny to help you out may be necessary as well as extra cost for running a gen for longer. If you set your prices (weekly or monthly) just lower than the official creches for it to be competetive and set the hours such that Anything outside the stipulated hours can be charged as extra. Its very doable. And you have the added benefit of seeing your LOs.



Good luck!

Thanks, You nailed it.
I will do my plus and minus and go with the best option.

MiracleMum:
My dear, i did it oh. I be proper Lagos working class mum and I drive everyday in traffic with my daughter, most times i look for safe spot by the road and park to breastfeed/pacify her before i continue my journey. It was difficult but i didnt have another choice - i just had to manage the situation well and get the best out of it. I even had to get this kiddies ipad with cartoons and positioned it in front of her car seat, she will watch, dance and doze off. At some time, i even preferred going to work with cabs and BRT cos my baby doesn't cry when i'm carrying her. That's motherhood! I once complained to my elder sis how stressful my new life is and she told me "Thats motherhood! it's not by getting pregnant - the real thing is having the baby, taking good care of the baby and sacrificing everything for the baby." In some families parenthood is planned!

Also note that, the cheaper a creche is, the more useless the caregivers are cos a cheap creche cant afford a well trained caregiver that understands the implication of drug abuse. Neither can they afford to have a CCTV where live feed are monitored from an office (the caregivers feel monitored and won’t dare to ignore a baby that needed attention) or uninterrupted power supply.

Recently, some creche just introduced skype call-in, where the TV in the crèche serves for entertainment and doubles as a monitor so parents can call in through Skype to see their babies while they are at work.

If you want the best hands to handle your baby, it must cost something.
My God help us! Parenthood cost a lot, i cant buy asoebi the way i used to and i cant attend owambe the way i used to. It pains me but what can i do?

You guys got my worries. How do i cope with the cry of My Twin babies in Lagos Traffic?
Do you know ive been thinking what to really do about work and caring for my Twins? I don't know the kind of creche to leave both of them that will give the kind of care i give to my babies. Geting something like that will be extremely costly since they're twin and their closing hour is another factor since i dont get back early due to Lagos traffic after work hours.
I was thinking of starting up a home creche instead of returning to my coy since i leave in a serene and large apartment in a secured neighbourhood and i have a wonderful nursery i set up for my babies. But the issue is how much can that really fetch me? Though I love babysitting, finance is still needed to keep the home running..

Anyway, I don't intend starting up till im through with EBF because at this point i have little to no time for anything other than BF.
God help us as Mothers...

babythug:
Well done dear. I can imagine the way it'll be vigilante times 2....
Are you bottle feeding?,if you express milk maybe others can help with feeding them and you get some rest...

Pele

Im not formula feeding yet. They dont even allow my boobs get filled before they storm on it.
Once milk production is established, I'll start extracting. I tried doing that 4 days ago but i got little.
Infact i can hear one them giving me the warm up sound already.

babythug:
Congratulations on the bundles of joy!

I don't have multiples but I can only advise that you develop a schedule or routine and try to follow it strictly.

Accept all the offers of help you'll get from friends and family it'll be much needed.

Bulk cook as much as you can and plan meals for the week so that is doesn't add to the stress of caring for the babies.

For the schedule try and be as practical as possible and leave a little allowance for days where the twins aren't cooperating. You can do laundry while they're asleep before you get a short snooze too. Time their meals to make it easier for you

Hope this helps

A big thanks to all who shared my joy....
I really feel honoured.

@Babythug this is a nice one..I'm off to get my S to work.
Schedule Planner to work. I really agree that planning my day will go a long way to ease some stress....
I barely have time to rest due to the continuous demand for breastmilk unlike the case of a single baby...

Pacypatty:
Kk ma,I ll try it immedipately...Thk u ma.

Please dont use Skineal on your baby. It contains steriods and is absorbed into the organs..
U can use Baby Tribotan Instead.

In another news, God just blessed us with a wonderful set of twins. Please i will really appreciate contributions on how to adequately care for them. Thanks

XaintJoel20:
Did this incident happen in Uniben. (Hall 1 or Hall 2)

Do you know me?

I remember when i was in 100L and my bunky in Final yr was oppressing me. Whenever i wanted something from my small cupboard up, she will start folding clothes in her lower cupboard and let me stand for eternity or tell me to stretch and get what i need.
One day as i was stretching to get something, my cooking spoon landed on her head and gave her a bump.
I almost laughed but i controlled myself and rushed to her and started pressing her head. My roommates had a good laugh. I was sympathetic though, but the truth is i felt good somehow like God don punish you today.

MRSALT:
Again politicians with smooth tongue. He promised to create jobs and alleviate poverty. But he failed to explain how he can do that. With dwindling monthly federal allocation, aspirants must give us figures and statistics of what they want to do and the plausible effective method to achieve their targets

You nailed it....
How does he intend providing jobs?
How does he intend eradicating poverty?
How does he intend making them financially independent?

Only if we were sensible enough to ask Buhari what type of change he wanted to offer Nigerians and how he intends achieving Change, we would have known that APC was a party of Power Seeking People without any structure in place to rule this country.

amtaken:
And Tinubu and other APC members loots are somewhere taking a nap.

You spoke my mind.
So on point.

folak48:
@Faith111 pls lets know the biz in particular to help in bailing us out of the shacles of poverty thanks.

ourchoice:
Glad to read from someone with practical experience. You can as well shed more light on it to encourage and enlighten others more.
I know people doing very well in most of the businesses I mentioned here, reason for my mentioning the ideas.
May u continue to rise in your endeavors

The secret for ME is number 7: Marketing and Sales...I'm grudgingly exposing my secret.

Its simple. Go to companies that make products or render services and tell them that you want to market their products and ask what your commission will be.
I dont mean GNLD or other suffer head products o. I mean products or services that already have a market.
e.g It could be as simple as partnering with different good schools or Creche centres in your area on commission basis and refering parents to the different schools depending on their pocket size. Just exchange their contacts or give a referral note or take them there yourself.
Remember no one wants to do biz with an hungryman so package yourself and have good knowledge of whatever sector you decide to go into so your client can trust your recommendation. Sectors to market may include Education, Fashion, Health, Construction, Food e.t.c. You don't really need startup capital.
Note: You can work with competitors in same sector so you don't lose your Client in anyway due to price or quality. Afterall, you are not on anyone's payroll n youre not answerable to any1.

Double post

You listed a point ive made real money from. NOT just hundreds of thousands but some good money.
Graduated with a 2.1 at a good age...
Never failed any aptitude test, i mean good coys...
Well i'll share my success story one day when i become a celeb...
My advice to young graduates is Scratch your brain and get ideas and start off, it may not pay off initially but will definitely pay off on the long run.
I know how frustrating Jobhunting could be. People like Lero15, Singlefade and many more on Job section definitely attest to my hustle if i use my other Username.

Op
1. Wheat contains a Protein called gluten which only poses hazard to those that are allergic to it. For instance my daughter did not feed on any corn related cereal through her infancy cos she was seriously allergic to it but She was very okay with wheat based cereal and had no allergy for gluten.

2. Contrary to what you said, Whole wheat does not have a High GI. It takes time to get broken down. The degree of processing just like must flour might affect its GI.
So whole Wheat grains are very healthy and contains enough fibre which aids digestion and bowel movement. And is very Ok for diabetic patients provided its labeled Whole Wheat or Whole Grain.

Like the best news ive come across on NL in a long tym.
Im glad i can now turn on my TV and not see mumyG screaming or some aristo girls showing their boobs.

I need it for my daily living and dealings.
So help me God.
It prolongs one's life and safes one from troubles.
